Created attachment 202579 [details] screen shot (Using the PrintScreen key to make a screen shot currently doesn't work - see also bug #361995) Same in the "test keyboard layout" input field when trying to change the keyboard layout. Same with Czech special characters (ěščřžýáíé...). Hm - /usr/lib/locale in the inst-sys only contains a file "locale-archive". Looks like X11 can't find the correct locale environment? BTW entering those characters works nicely in the installed system. It's not a bug in the YQInputField widget. 'locale-archive' is ok, it's just an alternative way to keep the glibc locales. I can reproduce the bug, but umlauts _do_ work if I open an xterm. So I guess it's yast (or qt) not setting up locales correctly. Found it. We don't have all /usr/lib/gconv files in inst-sys; trying to find out which ones are missing. It needs UTF-16.so. Steffen, with Alpha3, I still have problem with Czech characters... Yes, that is because the alphas3 deadline was last week, not this monday. *** Bug 362566 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 373144 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
When creating a new user during installation of 11.0-Alpha2+, German umlaut characters cannot be entered correctly. I selected language "German" at boot time (from the isolinux function keys) and later again in the "language" menu. Switching back and forth between English and German did not change anything. How to reproduce: - Boot from mini-ISO CD - Switch language to German at the boot screen - Select SLP / 11.0-Alpha2+ - Leave language at "German" - Select "Next" ("Weiter") until the "Create New User" dialog appears - Try to enter a name with Umlaut characters, e.g. "Jörg Müller"
